The dumpfile header has this field, which was inherited from
the old "diskdump" facility:
struct disk_dump_header {
...
unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr */
...
and which, among other things, is used by the crash utility as a
delimiter to determine whether a physical address read request is
legitimate. And obviously the field cannot handle PFN values greater
than 32-bits.
The makedumpfile source code does have its own max_mapnr representation
in its DumpInfo structure in "makedumpfile.h":
struct DumpInfo {
...
unsigned long long max_mapnr; /* number of page descriptor */
...
But in its "diskdump_mod.h" file, it carries forward the old diskdump
header format, which has the 32-bit field:
struct disk_dump_header {
...
unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr */
...
And here in "makedumpfile.c", the inadvertent truncation occurs
when the PFN is greater than 32-bits:
int
write_kdump_header(void)
{
...
dh->max_mapnr = info->max_mapnr;
...
Now upstream has below commit to fix this, back port it:

+Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH v4] Fix max_mapnr issue on system has over 44-bit
+ addressing.
+
+This patch will fix a bug of makedumpfile doesn't work correctly on system
+has over 44-bit addressing in compression dump mode.
+This bug was posted here:
+http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2013-September/009587.html
+
+This patch will add 3 new fields in struct kdump_sub_header.
+unsigned long long start_pfn_64; /* header_version 6 and later */
+unsigned long long end_pfn_64; /* header_version 6 and later */
+unsigned long long max_mapnr_64; /* header_version 6 and later */
+
+And the old "unsigned int max_mapnr" in struct disk_dump_header will
+not be used anymore, but still be there for compatibility purpose.
+
+The max_mapnr_64 only exists in strcut kdump_sub_header, and that only
+for compressed kdump format, so for ELF format kdump files (non-compressed),
+only the max_mapnr is available, so it still may be truncated for addresses
+exceed 44bit (above 16TB).
+
+This patch will change the header_version to 6.
+
+The corresponding patch for crash utility can be found here:
+http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2013-October/009750.html
+
+This patch doesn't change sadump_header.
+
+Changelog:
+v4:
+- Do not change max_mapnr_64 in kdump_sub_header in memory for old kernel.
+
+v3:
+- Change notes for max_mapnr, start_pfn and end_pfn as obsolete.
+- Remove "(32bit)" from debug messages of max_mapnr, start_pfn and end_pfn.
+- Set the 32bit start_pfn and end_pfn to UINT_MAX.
+- Remove bitmap writting enhancement to another seperate patch.
+- Change type of len_bitmap in struct DumpInfo back to unsigned long.
+
+v2:
+- Rename max_mapnr in struct kdump_sub_header to max_mapnr_64.
+- Change type of max_mapnr_64 from unsigned long to unsigned long long.
+ In x86 PAE mode on x86_32 kernel, the address may exceeds 44bit limit.
+- Add start_pfn_64, end_pfn_64 for struct kdump_sub_header.
+- Only print 64bit start_pfn_64, end_pfn_64 and max_mapnr_64
+ debug messages for disk dump header version >= 6.
+- Change type of bitmap_len in struct DumpInfo, from unsigned long to
+ unsigned long long.
+- Enhance bitmap writting function in reassemble_kdump_header().
+ Prevent bitmap writting failure if the size of bitmap is too large to
+ fit a sigle write.
+
+v1:
+-
